The WPSG offices, showroom, call center, and warehouses will be closing early today at 4:00pm for our annual Christmas party. Sorry for any inconvenience, we will be staffed as usual starting Saturday morning.

Tincture of Benzoin is often applied to skin before applying tape or other adhesive bandages. To some degree, it protects the skin from allergy to the adhesive in the tape or bandage, but mostly it makes the tape or bandages adhere much longer. Plain Tincture of Benzoin will not do this, and tape will tend not to stick to skin treated with it. It is also used by athletes for its reputation of toughening skin exposed to the tincture.
